GasTown Riot!

GasTown Riot!

GasTown Riot!

GasTown Riot! is a six-piece acoustic gang of musicians who want to instill the New Orleans mardi-gras sound into the Gas City! The music is hard rolling dixieland (traditional jazz) mixed with swampy mardi-gras marches. The band intentionally uses no amplification or electronic instruments as they want to keep the sound true to this form of "roots music".

Members of the band include:

  • Cam "leather lips" Lockerbie (trumpet)

  • "doc" Al Gray   (clarinet)

  • Bruce "ever-ready" Evens (trombone)

  • Mike "the pillar" Steiner  (sousaphone)

  • "billie" Bob Cote (tenor banjo)

  • Mark "Snakes" Steiner (cocktail drum kit)
